Johnson took on the heavyweights of science. And he got their attention, even provoking a response from neo-Darwinist Stephen Jay Gould in the pages of \u003cem\u003eScientific American.\u003c\/em\u003e Now Johnson's back with a book that expands his critique from science to law, education and today's culture wars.\u003cbr\u003e Is God unconstitutional?\u003cbr\u003e Why is morality forced out of public school curriculum?\u003cbr\u003e Can Christians believe in God and evolution?\u003cbr\u003e Why aren't we getting anywhere in the debate over abortion?\u003cbr\u003e Will the Grand Unified Theory solve the riddle of the universe?\u003cbr\u003e Johnson dares to answer these and other tough, touchy questions. He reveals why naturalism (the philosophy that the material world is all there was, is and will be) has become \"the established religious philosophy of America,\" supplanting Judeo-Christian belief. He shows how naturalism undergirds science, law, education and popular culture. And he argues that naturalism has even infiltrated the church--marginalizing opposition as irrational, and encouraging Christians to adopt a more \"reasonable\" stance.\u003cbr\u003e In \u003cem\u003eReason in the Balance, \u003c\/em\u003e Johnson writes energetically and persuasively--chapter by chapter zeroing in on the chinks in the argument for naturalism. He explores nearly every acre of today's cultural battlefield: God, sex education, evolution, abortion, cosmology and particle physics, what our public schools should teach, the basis of law, the meaning of reason and a few other things that matter. Armed with biblical truth, common sense and a clear understanding of his foe, he steps out like David to fell the intellectual Goliath of our day.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/sureshotbooks-com.myshopify.com\/search?type=product%2Carticle%2Cpage\u0026amp;q=AUTH-172786\"\u003ePhillip E.
